We were looking for a tool to support a LinkedIn Live webinar and tested several options, but they were always missing key features. StreamYard met all our needs. It allowed us to schedule the event, display LinkedIn comments on screen in real time, record everything, and easily bring in external guests. After the webinar, it also generated short clips that we could reuse for social media. Our team is relatively young and comfortable with technology, but the tool is still very easy to use and requires almost no learning curve. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Streamyard creates after a webinar already shorts that can be used for social media, subtitles included. They look great and it saved us as some time! #### Cons In general we were very happy with the tool, however if I need to mention something that can be improved it's perhaps the options of adding your brand logo to on screens. It is possible but we struggles a tiny bit with the size as we had 4 different companies joining. --- ### Great features, clean design, a bit pricey - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Publishing - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 1-3 years · monthly - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered After trying several podcasting and live streaming platforms over the years, Streamyard stood out early for all the right reasons. The ease of use is immediately apparent from the moment you log in. The layout is clean, thoughtfully designed, and the UX feels polished and professional without being complicated. Whether you're a seasoned podcaster or just getting started, there is very little friction between you and a great-looking episode. The audio quality is noticeably strong and a significant step up from what most people are used to from Zoom calls. Your guests sound like they're in a real studio, and that matters when you're trying to build a professional show. The video quality matches — crisp, clear, and broadcast-ready, in a way that used to require much more effort and equipment. Where Streamyard really earns its keep is in the production workflow. Adding intros, outros, and midroll videos is simple and seamless, and the multiple screen sharing options give you real flexibility, whether you're hosting a solo episode or bringing in guests. The finished product requires little to no editing before it's ready to publish, which is a genuine time saver and one of Streamyard's biggest selling points. What you record is essentially what you get, and that is a huge deal for busy creators. Customer support has been responsive and helpful when I've needed them, which is always reassuring with a platform you rely on regularly. That said, the pricing is a negative. At $59 a month, Streamyard is already a significant investment, and the fact that creating video clips and transcripts comes with additional fees on top of that is genuinely hard to justify. Those are not niche features — they are core tools for modern podcasters and content creators. At that price point, at least one of them should be included without question. It's the one area where Streamyard leaves you feeling nickel-and-dimed, even though the rest of the experience is so strong. A fantastic platform in many ways, but worth going in with eyes open to what the real monthly cost will look like once you add the features you actually need. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Ease of use, fantastic layout, clean UX design, features for podcasters, audio quality is very good, much better than Zoom, high-quality video content, easy to add intro, outro, midroll video, little to no editing required of your final video, multiple screen sharing options for guests and solo episodes. Good customer support. #### Cons Given the high cost and the additional fee for creating video clips and transcripts, I feel that if I'm paying $59 a month, one or both of those features should be included. --- ### It Broke AFTER I PAID For It! - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Adam L. - Industry: Media Production - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · monthly - Reviewed: April 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros Software has potential but got worse after I paid for it. #### Cons This is the first time I've ever seen a product STOP working after paying for it! Everything worked fine in the free trial. Then we upgraded to a paid plan, and immediately after, our webinar registration stopped working. Everything was functioning properly before the upgrade. This issue wasn’t caught immediately, and we ended up spending ~$300 in ads sending traffic to a non-functional page. We’ve reached out through support and every social media channel, but received practically zero assistance despite telling the support team that our webinar is in 5 days! This has been a frustrating experience, especially given that the issue appeared right after becoming a paying customer. It’s difficult to justify relying on a platform when a core feature breaks at such a critical moment and resolution isn’t immediate. I wish I could recommend this software because it does have potential but it is still the first software that I have EVER seen that got worse after I paid for it. Save your money. Go with something else. --- ### Love Streamyard - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Debbie S. - Industry: Religious Institutions - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · weekly - Reviewed: December 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Livestreams will not be automatically recorded and saved by Streamyard. 5 hours of recording storage is what you get. the actual purchase is expensive. --- ### Easy to use and feature-rich platform, but support has deteriorated - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Sports - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: 3-5 years · monthly - Reviewed: November 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The initial experience was very good. They provided a real community feel and devs were responsive. It is sad to see that they now seem to take their subscriber base for granted by being unresponsive. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The platform itself is great. There is a shallow learning curve and you get a lot of features for a very reasonable price, including the ability to connect to multiple social media platfoms, cue up videos, connect to live guests and brand your studio). I particularly like the way you can use SMS to invite guests via mobile, and the scrolling ticker option. #### Cons The company appear to have abandoned their customers. They used to provide helpful customer support but now they appear to rely on automation to manage everything. Emails come across as rude (not including the customer's name, not reading emails, not responsing to social media queries, etc.) They also hide their prices (which is strange because they're very reasonable) --- ### It works... simple as that - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Chris A. - Industry: Entertainment - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · daily - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Streamyard was one of the first that offered streaming in multiple locations simultaneously. #### Cons The limits on the number of locations I could stream to at one time. --- ### Streamyard is alienating the smaller shows in lieu of profit - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Entertainment - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: 1-3 years · daily - Reviewed: March 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros I USED to like the product it had everything I needed, and it USED to have a fair price #### Cons Streamyard decided to change their plans, and the basic package I had which was $96 for the year was cancelled. They quadrupled their price to over $400, which has pushed me into looking at all the alternatives and I will switch when my year is up. They decided to "ADD" a lot of features which I will never use as I am a small podcaster, and then have now started to drop the ball on the essentials. For instance local recordings have just disappeared, Audio cutting in and out on local recordings, but on the video file the audio doesn't have any of these cutouts. The processing of the audio gets stuck and never finishes. So instead of polishing their product they have decided to add more features and allow the essential parts to fail --- ### Excellent tool to produce lives - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jander S. - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 1-3 years · weekly - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered StreamYard has made our live content production much easier, as it is a very intuitive tool with many features. The fact that it runs directly in the browser makes it even easier to use. I recommend. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Simultaneous streaming to multiple platforms. Video, slideshow, PC screen features. Functionality to invite other participants. Display of chat questions on the screen. Simultaneous scheduling for multiple platforms. #### Cons Crashes and decreased video quality, even with stable internet connection. Sometimes video sharing doesn't work. --- ### A great streaming tool for beginners! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: James R. - Industry: Professional Training & Coaching - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: less than 1 year · monthly - Reviewed: April 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I had a few glitches and bugs but I think it was either because of my internet connection or because the Live feature on LinkedIn was so new. Otherwise, it's a great tool for beginning streamers and it does what you need. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The main reason I liked Streamyard so much was because it was offered as a native integration through LinkedIn Live which is where I wanted to start streaming once I got approved. #### Cons The freemium features are quite restrictive. I wanted to broadcast my streams to LinkedIn, Facebook and Zoom and to do that, you have to have a paid subscription. #### Vendor response Thanks for your review, James. You're not alone in wanting paid plan features for FREE. We get this question often. At this time, cloud video processing is still quite costly, and this is why our FREE plan is restricted to one destination. We absorb this cost because we know money can be tight when you're just starting out, and we want to help creators, change-makers and businesses share their message and grow their community. We know video is THE best way to do this. Cloud video processing is still a really young industry. We hope that as it matures (and as we grow) we can offer more destinations on the FREE plan. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experiences! Keep in touch as you grow your reach with video. - Alana, Customer Experience Evangelist Replied May 2021 --- ### It was good while it lasted - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Entertainment - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · weekly - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

No incentive was offered Overall, it works for FREE for personal use, but it would not be good for a business--like for me, I would like to integrate the HeySummit platform with it and it is not possible (currently). Certainly, there is NO concern however that it does what is currently designed to do--and the UI allows for facility in usage for the non-streaming expert--which we ALL are at first. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros StreamYard does EXACTLY what you need it to do on a shoestring budget. It's costs are upfront and not fickled, which is why I utilized it-- to see if my purchased ltd software (see below) was a good buy. I effectively used it with my Facebook page...seamless! I signed up on the site with YouTube and Twitter accounts, too. All were there (xcept Instagram). #### Cons I wasn't so pleased with the little things. It was a bit grainy (but that could be any software...even Zoom). Its cost is lower than the others, but it does not integrate with as many other tools, either. #### Vendor response Thanks Kimberly for taking the time to write this review. I love that you have found us to be your solution. You mentioned that you were interested in having StreamYard integrate with more services, I'd love to meet with you and learn more (Contact info sent privately). -Daniel. Replied March 2021 --- ### Quick and easy out of the box solution for live streaming - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Jason V. - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 1-3 years · weekly - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It's so easy to use, stream live to the platforms we need and bring guests on. No additional software required. #### Cons We have an additional camera we use and it causes feedback and noise when we have an in-person guest. Works great otherwise. This is likely something the software wasn't designed for, but we can't actually turn off audio all the way on the device. --- ### Generally I would say the best live streaming app but there are as good options with cheaper cost - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Daniel C. - Industry: Events Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · weekly - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

Maybe this was one of the first app that I use for livestreaming but it was generally super easy to use and all my guest didn't have much issue connecting. #### Cons I think there is some limitation to the layout which I prefer in other softwares. Maybe also the costing --- ### The basic stream solution for beginners - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Andrés J G. - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · monthly - Reviewed: September 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered It was a wonderful experience when I started doing streaming. They make it easy and non-threatening for beginners. But for the same reason, when I necedad to step-up, I had to look elsewhere. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros It starts at $0, so you can't beat the price. It's so easy to use for basic streaming if you are just starting, it's an easy decision. Plus, the paid plans are not expensive, so if you need it, it's easy to upgrade to a paid plan. #### Cons It's too basic. Once you learn to use it or need something better, you need to look somewhere else. This was my case and I felt like I had outgrown Streamyard. --- ### Streamyard is a go-to streaming platform for webinars - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Patrick O. - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · monthly - Reviewed: July 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I've used several streaming platforms to execute webinars, and I'd say Streamyard is among the most user-friendly. The streams go off without a hitch, there's no noticeable lag, and the downloads are high-quality. I use the On-Air Webinars and stream live to LinkedIn successfully as well. Note that there is a short lag going to LinkedIn. The omni-chat is useful to see comments from LinkedIn right within Streamyard, but it is a less-than-ideal experience for LinkedIn viewers when they can't see the in-app Streamyard chat. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Streamyard is an easy-to-use streaming platform that I've used for live webinars. The on-screen graphics are simple, and it's easy for guest speakers to join and participate. I've had only good quality streaming in my experience. #### Cons I would like Streamyard to allow customization of registration emails. I'd like to be able to customize the content, timing, and frequency. --- ### A solid solution for live streaming - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Yann I. - Industry: Online Media - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: 1-3 years · a few times a year - Reviewed: May 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I have used Streamyard as both the host and organizer of live streams, as well as the guest of one-on-one interviews and roundtable conversations, and I have to say that the platform's stability is something that stands out. There's no doubt that your internet connection plays a key role in this but Streamyard does come across as a reliable platform for all kinds of live streams on different social media platforms (I'm excited to start using it for LinkedIn Live too!). Of everything that Streamyard brings to the table, there are a couple of features I'm a big fan of. Firstly, there's the clean dashboard, which makes for a smooth and straightforward user experience. Whether you're the one in charge of everything or you're getting invited to participate in a conversation, Streamyard basically takes you by the hand every step of the way. Then, there are its engagement features. You can put audience members in the spotlight by highlighting some of their questions or comments – you can also use this feature to put emphasis on something you'd like people to take action on. #### Cons There are a couple of things I'm not crazy about, but this has more to do with what's included (or not included) in certain plans. At the moment of me writing this review, you won't be able to do Full HD streams nor multistream (so have your live stream be distributed and streamed across different social media platforms at the same time) unless you're ready to spend a few hundred dollars per month. #### Vendor response Thanks for your review, Yann. We love hearing that "StreamYard's stability is something that stands out." And, please have another look at our pricing plans: you do NOT need to spend a few hundred dollars per month! You can produce Full HD streams and multi-stream with our Professional plan, which is $39/month USD (when billed annually.) Or, multi-stream (up to 3 destinations) with our Basic ($20/month USD) plan. - Alana, Customer Experience Evangelist Replied May 2021 --- ### StreamYard simply delivers. Great product for most live streaming use-cases. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · weekly - Reviewed: March 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. StreamYard is extremely intuitive and gets your live stream off the ground quickly. I have a background in live-event video and have used 16 channel multi M/E switchers, this does similar and often times more at literal pennies on the dollar. This product is a really great mix of online meeting software and a virtual ATEM. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros StreamYard is extremely intuitive for switching video and M/E. I am super impressed that this is all browser-based. The ability to integrate 10 users and seen charing into a single live stream is incredible. StreamYard also has super smooth switching and transitions for lower thirds, general M/E, and PiP. This integrates perfectly with FB and YouTube - even setting up live events and premiers. Setting up custom RTMP feeds is yet another great feature. #### Cons Within the PiP features, I am unable to determine which person is to be maximized if multiple people are on screen - it seems to work left to right in your queue but that is determined solely based on the order people login. There should be multiple views for the back-end, there should be a switcher view and a "zoom call" multi-person view for everyone else. Everyone being able to see the back-end switching is often distracting. There should also be more broad API integration with other applications, e.g. Twitch. I know this can be achieved in the custom RTMP feeds but that is an unnecessary hassle in a fast-paced environment. The company should create templates for backgrounds based on the number of participants as the size and positions shift depending on how many participants are on the stream. The media player maximums (length and file size) should also be expanded - currently, the video playback feature has a very small size (100mb I believe) and is limited to 1 minute #### Vendor response Thanks for your review, Dustin. We strive to keep StreamYard simple and easy to use while powering professional-looking streams and it looks we have succeeded in this. As for providing media player and additional video playback options: you'll be very pleased to hear these features have been enhanced and there are no limits to size or length. Also, we can probably do a better job of showing users this often missed layout PiP function > you can drag and drop the person you want featured, when multiple people are on screen. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experiences! We are always releasing new features, so if you have any questions, please reach out any time. - Alana, Customer Experience Evangelist Replied March 2021 --- ### Make yourself look awesome and get your message across simply - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Guy G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: 1-3 years · weekly - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

Overall, Streamyard is the best live-streaming option currently available that I have ever worked with. With options to use professional cameras, or just making webcams look much higher quality with smooth transitions, lower thirds, overlays, and easily added video make it a bar above the rest. It's also affordable, easy to learn, and works for most avenues where you can stream. A few technical hiccups here and there in design are not enough to deter me from recommending this to everyone. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Streamyard is a wonderful option for live-streaming what would otherwise be a simple Zoom event or Skype call. The professional transitions between layouts, ease of customizing your "brand" content and adding features has never been so user friendly in my opinion. Adding and removing users from the stream, changing views, and hosting content is so easy, my company is using it multiple times a month. At a very affordable price, in a COVID world, this is a fantastic option for making better use of live-streaming to multiple avenues like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch. It even has an option to use RTMP servers for lesser know sites, such as MixCloud, that works to wonderful effect! I cannot recommend this enough to someone who wants to begin to stream yet is fearful of programs like OBS. #### Cons By far, the most infuriating aspect of Streamyard is how it's limited to ten users per stream, including whoever is moderating/switching behind the scenes. This will always need to be clearly communicated to your team and can be a problem when trying to plan certain events. If they could figure out a way to expand this somehow, it would skyrocket the use for it in large-scale events. Additionally, some of Streamyard's transitions from video or overlays could use some smoothing out, as they are sudden or abrupt. I also would like to see physical switcher implementation as well as more options for transitions and branding. #### Vendor response Thanks for your review, Curry. We strive to keep StreamYard simple and easy to use while powering professional-looking streams and it looks we have succeeded in this. As for more production team collaboration, behind-the-scenes; and more speakers and people on screen... You're going to love what's coming up in 2021! Thanks again for taking the time to share your experiences!

We love to have found such a professional solution for such a low price.
